I , ; Thoju I- vl4 1 topics treated in the-
I annual j Message f the President,
K'. ; reacl before the two houses of Con
I V;. gresa last Monday, are the followingr
I ;.;.' Calamity in Boston, the Geneva tri-
" boual, the San Juaa boundary ques-
tion, relations with certain European

ican republics, the national 'debt and
, the national' currency, the Navy and
t . other depattrnents,Va t, census f or
i. ; 1875, Territories, and Civil Service.
': i'V-.'i President recommends. ,, a
board of commissiouera attend ;--tcr
the : distribution of . the . moneyre
ceived from tOreat" Britain as the
award, of .damages , . by ... the Geneva
Board of Arbitration f or : losses sus
tained by' the depredations of .Con-
- f ederate - cruisem ' - He also recom
mends a commission-to complete the
survey between the United States and
the British possessions. The Presi
dent thinks Venezuela might pay her
indebtedness to this country much
faster. He calls attention to the
weakness of the Navy, ; and favors
the postal telegraph. On this head
we may have, something to . say, in a
day or two; We are uncompromis
ingly opposed to the scheme .of the
Government control of the telegraph.
He warns the Ku Klux to disband,
which seems a work of supereroga
tion, as there is nouuch body now in
existence ; The - President approves
the bill before Congress providing for
the application to educational pur
poses of the proceeds of the sales of
publio lands.; -Jn the President's view
the Territories, except Utah, are get
ting on very welL
' " On the subject of the revenue laws
and the national currency the Presi
dent says: . r
With the jrreat reduction of taxation by
the acts of Congress at its last session, the
expenditures of the government in collect
ing the revenue -win be much reduced for
the next fiscal year. It is very doubtful,
however, whether any further reduction of
so vexatious a burthen upon any people will
be practicable for. the present At all
events, as a measure of justice to the hold
ers of the nation's certificates of -indebtedness.
I "would recommend that no more leg
islation be had on this subject unless it be
to correct errors of omission or commission
in the present laws, until sufficient time has
elapsed to prove that it can be done and
still leave sufficient revenue to meet current
expenses of government, pay. interest on
. the public debt and provide for the sinkinsr
fund established by law. The preservation
of our national credit is of the highest im
portance. Next in importance to this comes
a solemn duty to provide a national curren
cy of fixed, unvarying value as compared
with gold, and as soon as practicable, hav
ing due regard for the interests of the debt
or claas and the Vicissitudes of trade and
commerce, convertible into gold at par. .
Probably "that port of th e Message
. which was looked to with most in
terest, as foreshadowing a policy in a
matter of great importance, was the
portion referring to the Civil Service.
For it was not considered likely that
the President would indicate any
change in the course of the Adminis
tration towards the South. But Grant
disappoints any expectation that may
have been raised as. to his taking a
decided stand in the matter of reform
ing the public serviced -We quote the
concluding - part of ''the . Message,
which is devoted to this snbiect that
which is devotea to this subject, that
we may ao ine xrresiaeni no injusuce:
An earnest desire has been felt to correct
abuses which have grown up in the civil ser
vice of the country through the defective
method of making appointments to office.
Heretofore Federal offices have been regard-
. ed too much as the reward of political ser
vice. Under authority of Congress rules
have been established to regulate the tenure
of office and the mode of appointments.
It cannot be expected that any system of
rules can be entirely effective, and prove
perfect remedy for the existing evils, until
they have been thoroughly tested by actual
practice and amended according to the re
quirements of tbe service. . J)uring . my
term of office jt shall be my earnest, en
deavor to bo apply tbe rules as to secure the
greatest possible reform in the civil service
of the Government but it will require the
aireci action oi congress to render tbe en
forcement of the system binding upon my
successors; and I hope that the experience
of the past year, together with appropriate
legislation by Congress, may reach a satis
factory solution of this question and secure
to the publift service lor all time practical
method of obtaining faithful and efficient
officers and employes;' '

TIMELYTOrtCS.
Out of several recently published instances
of successful farming in this State we select
the following, ': taken from the . Southern
Home, tor text for some remarks": "Mr. J.
T. Boyd, of PopularTenCmade'thi8 year
7 heavy bales oticotton on five acres of land
and the gleanings are still in the fieldVHe"!
made 15 bates on 15 acrev lhe entirecrop
planted by him. He used but 80 pounds of
fertilizers to the acre. Lands that bring in
such a money return would sell in the West
for $200 per acre. Here they can be bought
for from $ 15 to $20.. . This is certainly the
country for the mdusUiouspobrinan,'where'
a few years'; faithful iworlc:twiU make him;
the owner of a fine farm. ,' Now why do
our people think of abandoning a State-
their native State, to which so many ties
should bind thenwwhere such results are
secured by industry and where the possi
bilities so much exceed what has been done t
We are an advocate of lTorm'Carouna!,"we
admit, but we are also an advocate Of North
Carolinians. We would have our old men
who are dissatisfied and our young men who
are ambitious to do 'well and get along in
the world realize all their fond dreams. But
the best way to achieve success is to deserve
it. Achievement is one thing, and dream
ing quite another. The way to make money
Is to work for it and save it, when made.
If the people of the Northwest have be
come prosperous, they have deserved their
prosperity by hard, unremitting work. Let
our people contentedly stay in the old State
and let us see how many Boyds we shall
have in the next five years. We can make
the South as great and prosperous as the
Northwest. ;
At the State Teachers' Institute, Suffleld,
Connecticut, the Secretary made an interest
ing address on the subject of education in
Europe and the points of comparison with
this country. He represented that the pros-1
pect of popular education in Germany and
Italy is exceedingly good. We surpass
Europeans in school architecture and arith
metic They are ahead of us in the follow
ing respects: 1. More thorough supervision
of schools; 2, plan of gradation; S, culture
of the expressive faculties Americans have
a few set words and phrases which are
made to do duty on all occasions, without
reference to propriety or congruity; 4, in
dependence of text-books. They teach the
subject rather than the book -the matter
rather than a letter, and their teaching is
more conversational; . 5, ' more thorough
teaching of history; 6, mode of teaching
modern languages; 7," drawing. Napoleon
had said. Let it be taught in all the
school." The Swiss are in advance of all
other countries in this art' To this
iis their
general prosperity was owing. Hemmed in
among the mountains,' they own their own
houses and are more prosperous than many
other countries with, better advantages,.
England pays five times as much for educa
tion as for ciimfL? Drawing 3as" chiefly
made this .difference. Mr.: Northmp. ur
gently counselled all the teachers to teach
every one of his or her scholars drawing,
even if they had to neglect other duties.
The death of Mr. Greeley has awakened
attention to the defects in the electoral sys
tem, and there! is" probability of legislation
by Congress to remedy these defects at the
present session. When - the ' Constitution
"M5?.""' w iur vue cuoice oi
President and Vice President to rest with
electors." The practice has been for the
people to vote directly, the electoral college
merely recording the popular will . The
death of Mr. Greeley does not involve any
serious consequences, as he was not the
choice of the people.' But in case of the
death, before the -meeting of -the electoral
college, of a candidate for' President who
had received a majority, the case might be
different Suppose the contest very close
and some of the electors not incorruptible,
a man might be elected, who was odious to
the people. The best plan to obviate all
diffleulty and all such dangers as the one
just adverted to is to abolish the electoral
college, and let the election be by popular
ballot only. This is the opinion of many
eminent men.

- TnO weather had very much mod -

visitors and citizens were out in large
numbers; : , The galleries arid floors of
both houses were J well-filled with the
curious crowds long before, noon, the
ladies, as generally- the case,: , being
largely in the majority.
The senate chamoeir seemed to oe
more the point of attraction' than that
of the House. Fifty-six Senators
were in their seats some minutes be
fore the hour of opening, "most of the
absentees being Democrats. ; .N either
of the Maryland Senators were pres
ent, but both are expected to-morrow.
Messrs. Sumner arid Schurz, the lat
ter of whom only arrived this morn
ing, entered , the chamber arm-in-arm,
and at once attracted consiaeraDie.
observation. Mr. Wilson was the
first Senator to speak to them, and
was immediately followed by several
others. . It was noticeable, however,
that none of - the." Senators who dis
played so much bitterness against
them last session, spoke to them, witn
the exception of Mr. Morton. Even
Horace Porter, the late private Secre

make his adieus to the Senators, and
was warmly r congratulated on the
lucrative position he has obtained, q
OLD ANIMOSITIES, ETC.
There seems to be a disposition
amongst very lew senators or mem
bers to revive the animosities to
which such an abundant utterance
was given at the last session, but the
embers still glow under the ashes of
the past, and a chance breath may
fan them into a flame. Such, per
haps, may be the measure introduced
to-day by Mi Sumner to efface from
the army register and the regimental
colors all mention of the 'battles
lought aunnsr the late war, as, is
most properly said in Mr. Sumner's
preamble, it has never been the pol
icy of civilized nations to perpetuate
the remembrance of conflicts between
its own citizens. But the entire pol
icy of the, dominant party of this
country towards the bouth since the
suppression of the rebellion has been
entirely different from that pursued
by any other civilized nation under
the same circumstances, and there is
no lack of fierce spirits . in both
houses who will avail ' themselves of
the ODDOrtunitv offered bv this tror
osition to seek to reinaugarate the old
war cries and the old war feelings.
Therefore, while there should be no
doubt of the eminent propriety of
Mr. bumner 8 measure, grave mis
givings have been expressed as to the
policy of its being brought forward
at tnis upe. .
THE HOLTJE AND MR. GREELEY.
The House inaugurated the session
in a more lively manner than was ever
before known at a regular term. Mr.
Cox had prepared a resolution to the
same effect as that offered by Mr.
Dawes in regard to the memory of
Mr. Greeley, but it was thought best
that it should come from the Repub
lican side of the House. A solemn
stillness pervaded the assembly while
the resolution was being read, and
while Mr. Cox was speaking the most
cjuiei ana respect iui attention was ac
corded him. As soon as the re sola
tion was passed it was taken over to
the Senate and adopted unanimously

GEN. : BANKS AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
The refusal of the House to accept
General Banks' resignation as a mem
ber of the Committee on t o reign Af
fairs indicated the kind feeling felt
for him by his fellow members, for a
majority of the Republican members
either; did not vote at all or they voted
against excusing ' him. Mr. ' Butler
was the only one of his colleagues
who voted to excuse him, and among
other prominent members who voted
that way were Messrs. Bingham and
Kelly. After the vote Gen. Banks
indicated a purpose to insist upon his
resignation, but he was restrained by
friends on both sides of the House,
THE BLAINE COMMITTEE.
The committee appointed by the
House at the instance of Speaker
Blame, to investigate the charges
made in connection with the Credit
Mobilier, is pronounced a strong one
intellectually, and the belief seems to
be generally entertained that it will
conduct the inquiry in a fair and ltn
partial manner. It is their intention
to proceed to business to-morrow, and
ii i
witnesses win oe summoned as rapid
ly as possible.
THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
There was a good deal of confusion
and restlessness in the House while
the latter part of the President's mes
sage was being read, and the Speaker
naa to Dnng tne nouse to oraer in or
der to hear. The comment on the
message to-night is generally of a fa
vorable nature. It is regarded as a
plain, straightforward document.
